Fuel Rescue Leadgate - Leadgate Wrong Fuel Assist

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Monday and we were en route to assist an older lady who put petrol in her diesel Honda in Leadgate. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up in a country road along the way to visit her godchildren. I punched the location in the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "Now I'm getting rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd just got it several days ago when my old one, which I'd had for about 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant County Durham lady!

Below are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

All around County Durham we are finding a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out right away. And certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations very simply.

Remember that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in County Durham to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.

Fuel Rescue Leadgate - Leadgate Wrong Fuel Assist

This was what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was close to sunrise and noone was about. It had been fairly uneventful until now, and Ryan and I were relaxing looking through a couple of old articles. That was an unusual peaceful time in County Durham. It was in fact that quiet that the instant the telephone eventually rang I leaped! The customer told me: "I completed my overnight shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a Smart by mistake". I told him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was and we hit the road, arriving in Leadgate only an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine. He said thanks a lot for getting there so rapidly. As we were heading back to the office we saw two young ladies on the edge of the street who looked like they suffered a puncture. Accordingly we got out to help them change it, to their delight.
